u should bc you've done a pretty bad job of proving any of your points. You don't backup any of your beliefs with any semblance of logic. I dont mind you having a different opinion just explain yourself better than, bc the manager says so.

And I'm not apologising for Vlad, he holds a lot of responsible for how his career played out. All Im saying is management at that time didnt help him out, and he was a lot more natual gifted than fans give him credit for.

Always felt he could have sat in front of the back four. He had a (cliche) good engine.

Had talent, just wasn't his time here.

Shame.

Main points:

- Happy to be at Spurs.
- Poch is a really good manager and hopes he can continue to learn under guidance.
- Says that Spurs have a great team ethic and team mates make him feel welcome.
- Says some joker on Spurs Community keeps picking me to start in midfield in his teams.

Yes you potentially do, that was Ronaldo's and Bales problem. They lost pace, agility and became more injury prone by unnecesarily bulking up.

Ronaldo as in arguably the best player of all time Ronaldo?!

He scored a shit tonne of goals, but it wasnt because he bulked up. It was bc he had an unbelievable team that catered to his needs and bc he's a freakish once in a generation athlete that can do amazing things no matter what.

Also felt he was really good at RB the couple of times he filled in their. But ultimately I dont think he took his career serious enough to ever be a top footballer.

Nothing relevant to Spurs really

They asked him why spurs were the team with more international players at the world cup. Then they talked about Mate, about his position, his height, and what he thinks of the national team coach

He’s 20 he will naturally fill out. Even dele who was very lithe now looks more manly. Don’t think there is any concern with his physique at all.

Today showed why Foyth needs more game time. No reason he shouldn't be starting Cup games. He needs to learn and isn't given the chance enough.

I hope Poch doesn’t stop playing him because of today. Had a good game, first penalty was completely Trippier fault and the second pen was his fault but these things happen
Keep playing him Poch he’s class

Trouble is our FBs are giving our opponents free passages down the flanks all the time and exposing our CDs.

Up until the first pen he was excellent...kinda lost the plot after that, he was just shitting himself.

Really good up till the pens first wasn't so much down to him. Not the biggest CB but looks a class player to me

Like his decisions in possession (mostly) but needs calm himself a bit, too rash on several occasions tonight, but I'll put that down to being over keen to impress after midweek.

And our WF's (or at least Son tonight) were giving our FB's no protection often leaving them with two men. which in turn mean't the CB had to come across.

Thought he was really good - bit rash in the tackling obviously but Trippier was essentially selling him down the river the entire game so I don't really put much blame on Foyth.

Overall I really liked what I saw.

That's the hard lesson Foyth must learn in general I thought he played very well apart from the conceded penalties. The first pen was obviously down to Foyth but Trippier needs to take a hard look at himself.

Really hope he learns from this and Pochettinho doesn't cast him out to long....also I don't want to hear crap about him playing in midfield.
